It's taken over forty years and countless experiments with so-called media partners but Michael Eavis has finally found the perfect way to release important information about Glastonbury. Instead of press releases, tv and radio interviews, websites, social media or even printed flyers, Michael has decided to simply pass information on to the first person he bumps into when he goes shopping and assume it will all just be passed on accurately from there.

Of course he has.

Ahhh. New tangent for the thread!

Blue Jays have started well. Two good wins and a good outing for Dickey in game 2 of the series against the Pinstripes, despite the loss...I'm hopeful of a good year, and at least some post-season action.

Not sure how much of a marker beating the worst Yankees team in 30 years or so is. I expect the Sox to make the playoffs; think the over-achievers in Baltimore are your biggest threat to the post-season. Have you seen the way Adrian Gonzalez has started the season?! FFS!! That guy's trying to get all his work work in before the mid-season break for Glastonbury. Edited by jimmyt

So, should we expect to hear anything in April?!

Probably. What we were told had lots of uncertainies within it to make it all a bit vague, which is why it's not been repeated here.

We may or may not find out more about timescales tomorrow, when we get to talk to various top-bods at the bands competition.

Hi All

I've been following this thread for some time now, but this is my first post - so please be gentle with me! I met the Vaccines last night at the Rugby Tavern in Holborn London- the lead singer Justin confirmed they are playing the other stage on Friday. Obs they're not big enough to headline, but possible sub or 3rd down?

Thanks.

Hopefully you manage to get some concrete, repeatable information!

Hodgson played once didn't her, thinking 2004ish

I mean he

Don't think he's ever played Glastonbury.

He's been playing live almost non stop since about 2007 now though and would be perfect for a headline slot on the Acoustic Stage or an afternoon slot on the Pyramid. Think back to Willie Nelson a few years ago.

As for Supertramp, he fell out with them when they reneged on a gentleman's agreement to not perform his songs at their live shows.

They still play his hits and they form about 30% of the set which is a shame really as Rick Davies has some great songs himself and Mark Hart who sings Roger's songs is a woeful singer.

Hodgson has started playing festivals too and does have a Glasto shaped hole in this summer's schedule.

I'm crossing my fingers in hope.

Welcome!

I know they played early on Other a couple of years back and then later on Pyramid the year after (2013 / 2014?) so only seems right they can sub Other at this point! If nothing's clashing I'll go check 'em out!

Great username by the way, fantastic album!

    • Jack White a shout for next year? New album out soon. 
    • Steven Wilson Jr touring would be a good fit.   Brian Fallon (Gaslight Anthem) as he’s touring too next year.   Royston Club. Kingfshr. Bleachers. Spacey Jane. Gang Of Youths. Overpass
    • 90,000 on a single for day or over the weekend?   if it was for the whole weekend that’s disastrous   Given camping didn’t sell out unless they in effect transferred a lot of camping captivity to Chappell Roan day tickets 90,000 is absolute capacity there I think, so it would be hard to believe   i think it’s from the year before but the TPD tv footage when the killers are headlining makes it look like it’s at best half full
    • A part of me thinks weirdly they might hold off on Chaka/Robbie until they have a year where nobody else who fits the bill is available. This slot takes a very specific set of criteria, and I can't imagine they're flushed with options who are on tour and would take the smaller payday every year. Both Chaka and Robbie have expressed interest in doing it, so they're bankers for a year where fewer options are available. Which may well be 2027.
